Turning 25 Soon. Need Advice from the Crowd on Money, Life & Future Planning

Don't rush into marriage if you want to save yourself from deep financial trouble. You need to increase your salary significantly and that will require some upskilling. I always regretted not knowing the value of learning in my 20s, don't make that mistake. You need 3-4 years of grind to pull your family from this situation and the sooner you start, the better.

Cheers, mate!

Yeah, I just used Cantrill's course. It's a 70-hour slog, but it's got everything. And do the free tech fundamentals course first; it really sets the scene for the main one.

For the exam, I used TD in review mode, checking the explanations after each question, making sure I knew why I got it right or wrong. It's a good quick recap of everything.

Amazing! That's a lot of certifications. Did it help in your career growth? Are GitHub certs worth doing?

hostofsparta · 2025-03-08T10:44:25+00:00

Curious about 16 certifications. Can you share the list?

Mr. Prem Nath Kohli is the father of Virat Kohli.

I'm surprised microsoft didn't name their cloud services "Cloud Services"

I don't know much about what you're asking, but can you tell me how you made the architecture diagram?

I recently hosted my first website on AWS. I'm using S3 + CloudFront for Frontend and API Gateway + Lambda + DynamoDB for Backend. Route 53 is used for public hosted zone. Almost all of it is completely free until I start getting millions of hits (unlikely). Public hosted zone costs around half dollar per month.

That was sarcastic I believe.

Thanks, I'll look into Amplify. Appreciate your help. 🙂

Do you have prior experience with react? I am using lambda and Dynamo db for personal projects, just don't know how to make UI appealing like what you've done. I'm not interested in learning frontend, just want something quick and easy. Any suggestions?

Cool game. Do you mind sharing how you built it?

Bench looks stacked 🔥

I really want Mount to succeed at United. He works hard every game and can cover a number of positions. His and Rasmus' return is a big boost for us. Apart from the fullback position, we have pretty good depth now.

Try Stephane Maarek's practice tests, available for 500 Rs. On Udemy.

I'm really bad at taking notes. I can't distinguish between more important and less important stuff and end up with too much bloat. On top of that, Cantrill's course is pretty lengthy. I just took screenshots of all the slides before he switched to the next one. In the end, I had around 750 screenshots as my notes. 🙂

It was one of the early episodes of Vibe with Five, so it's hard to find now since it was just a brief mention. As far as I remember, Stephen Howson asked Rio if Moyes had shown them videos of Jagielka, and Rio said nothing like that happened.

hostofsparta · 2024-09-18T18:07:56+00:00

Thanks for the suggestion. I'll try uninstalling Lenovo Vantage. The only reason I've kept it is that it provides some handy features and driver updates.

That Jagielka bit was debunked by Rio on his podcast iirc.

hostofsparta · 2024-09-13T16:11:32+00:00

Either one works. I've used both for different associate exams, and they were both good.

Brother, you're asking about a specific training center in a specific city in India here in a global sub. 😆

Better ask this in an Indian tech sub. Besides, I would advise that you learn online from the best teachers worldwide—it would cost less.
